October 20, 2008 by Eric Richardson

It's been a long time since I posted something here. My excuse is that I blog too much -- since my June 2nd post here I've written 243 stories at blogdowntown. I rarely have any words left to go anywhere else.

It's worth noting the big news in my life, though. For the past few months I've been working full-time on blogdowntown, which had previously been a full-time hobby. Last month my project application for verbdowntown was approved by Community Partners, a non-profit incubator located here in Downtown. That makes me the project leader for a non-profit that to-date has raised $0, though certainly we're hoping to change that in the future.

I'm hoping to rework this site soon, hopefully in advance of this blog's 10-year anniversary on November 30. I do still have a life, and I would enjoy occasionally writing about it here.
